What this trial studies

This is a prospective, monocentric observational cohort conducted in the Orthopedic Surgery Department at the University Hospital of Bordeaux enrolling adults treated for surgical site infections after prosthetic, spinal, or trauma-related orthopedic procedures. Over a five-year enrollment period, investigators will collect demographic, clinical septic, psychiatric, and nutritional data using medical records and self-administered questionnaires. Patients will be followed for up to three years to document new-onset depression and related complications such as malnutrition and the care provided. The goal is to describe incidence, timing, and risk factors to inform prevention and patient management pathways.
